Panda Cloud Antivirus 1.5 has been released recently and pushed to users across the world through the transparent upgrade system. Its benefits are already well known, and raise the protection standard compared to the previous edition of the free antivirus.
Improvements have been developed so they all converge to improved performance. As such, it is expected that the new edition puts less stress on the CPU while scan speeds increase. Also, usability of the application sees some progress since now you can add exclusions based on the extension of the file as well.
Getting the application on the system should not be too much trouble, although we were not able to complete the procedure with the web installer; the reason for the refusal to even get the task started was that Internet Explorer (6 or above) had not been detected on the system. However, working with the offline installer we were able to finish the installation quite quickly and without any snags.
Panda has not deviated too much from the Cloud Antivirus’ interface has not changed much since the first final release. The same minimalist application window is present in this version, featuring three main buttons (Scan, Report and Recycle Bin) and a real-time graph showing the current number of files scanned per minute.
For advanced configuration simply flip it over and you’ll get the screen where you can disable autorun on the system and on USB drives. Granular control over scan sessions, warnings and reports or exclusions can also be easily shaped up.
As far as scanning is concerned, the free version of Cloud Antivirus does not feature behavioral analysis, but it can detect potentially unwanted programs (PUPs) and comes with behavioral blocking; this means that the actions of all applications on the system is monitored and dangerous programs are blocked.
You can configure the application to automatically clear the action history and eliminate detected items with a specific frequency or create a database of locations (files and folders) as well as extensions that should be avoided during scans.
The new version of Cloud Antivirus advertises improved performance not only with regards to picking up threats on your computer but also to the stress on the system. The progress made by the developer in this sense is noticeable, since our Dual Core CPU 2GHz CPU would carry out other jobs with no problems during scans. In our case the CPU spiked at 50% and maintained a stress average of about 38%. Average RAM usage was a negligible 25MB.
The Good
Free protection against malware, fast access to Collective Intelligence and simplicity all-around are among the main pluses in Cloud Antivirus. But this version also comes with improved performance on all fronts: scan speed, system resources usage as well as malware detection rate.
The Bad
It managed to detect more than it could neutralize. We were left with plenty of threats on the test system despite them being flagged as known malware. Also, in some cases it may block a program without giving you a heads up on the action.
There is no action menu to allow you to instruct the application what to do with the items it detected as threats but did not manage to neutralize them.
The Truth
Panda Cloud Antivirus is indeed easy to use, very light on system resources and manages to offer protection against all sorts of malware. Despite being a free product it manages to provide a lot more than just basic protection. If you are running it on a clean system it will do a very good job keeping threats at bay. Since it relies on intelligence from the cloud no updates are required and the collective pool of information about threats will be shared with your system in a snap.

Avast made great strides in its previous update. Version 5 set the stage for the modern, massively popular, and free security suite with a new interface that ditched a quirky, late-'90s jukebox style for a more polished look. Easier to navigate, it also became easier to add new features.
Make no mistake; Avast 6 adds features both big and small. Some that had previously only been available to paid upgrade users are now free for all versions, and newer features have been seamlessly added to the interface experience. If you're familiar with Avast 5, upgrading to Avast 6 won't be that big of a leap.
Features and support
As mentioned, the two big new features in the free version of Avast 6 are the AutoSandbox and the WebRep add-on. The debut of the AutoSandbox makes Avast the second antivirus option to offer a sandboxing tool for free. Competitor Comodo introduced a sandboxing tool in January 2010. Avast's sandbox probably works differently, as Comodo has a pending patent on its version. And certainly, one of the most frustrating things about sandboxing technology is that there are some indications that it doesn't work perfectly.
The AutoSandbox, new in both free and paid Avast versions, automatically places suspicious programs in a virtualized state when it suspects them of being threats. As the program runs, the sandbox keeps track of file behaviors and what it reads and writes from the Registry. Permanent changes are virtualized, so when the process terminates itself, the system changes it made will evaporate.
Performance : As far as Avast's impact on system performance goes, in a real-world test Avast completed its scans in a timely yet not blazingly fast manner. A Quick Scan took about 20 minutes, and the Full Scan took 59 minutes. RAM usage was surprisingly light, with Avast 6 only eating up about 16MB when running a scan.
There were some notable areas where Avast did well. Avast had a minimal impact on startup time, with Avast Internet Security 6 adding 6.25 seconds, Avast Pro Antivirus 6 adding 5.76 seconds, and Avast Free Antivirus 6 slowing down the boot cycle by around five and a half seconds. All three posted a tiny impact on system shutdown, around 1.3 seconds slower than an unprotected computer. Scan times as well were competitive, slower than AVG, Trend Micro, and Panda, but faster than most competitors including Microsoft Security Essentials, Norton, and Ad-Aware. Also, Avast Pro Antivirus posted the best Cinebench score we recorded. Avast's one point of weakness in the lab was its MS Office decoding test performance, where it was slightly slower than average but by no means the slowest suite tested.

The web browser is arguably the most important piece of software on your computer. You spend much of your time online inside a browser: When you search, chat, email, shop, bank, read the news, and watch videos online, you often do all this using a browser.
Speed : Chrome is designed to be fast in every possible way: It's quick to start up from your desktop, loads web pages in a snap, and runs complex web applications fast. Learn more about Chrome and speed.
Simplicity : Chrome's browser window is streamlined, clean and simple.
Chrome also includes features that are designed for efficiency and ease of use. For example, you can search and navigate from the same box, and arrange tabs however you wish — quickly and easily.
Security : Chrome is designed to keep you safer and more secure on the web with built-in malware and phishing protection, autoupdates to make sure the browser is up-to-date with the latest security updates, and more. Learn more about Chrome's security features.
And more features : Chrome has many useful features built in, including translation in the browser, apps, extensions, themes, and more. Learn more about Chrome's newest and most-loved features.

The bottom line: Extensions, highly competitive page-load times, cutting edge features, and strong support for "future Web" technologies make Opera 11 one of the best browsers available.
The second-oldest browser currently in use, Opera debuted way back in 1995 and has recently undergone a major overhaul. No longer the quirky choice of enthusiasts, Opera has developed into a robust, full-featured suite of browsing tools.
Opera covers the basics with tabbed browsing, mouse-over previews, a customizable search bar, advanced bookmarking tools, and simple integration with e-mail and chat clients. Mouse-gesture support, keyboard shortcuts, and drag-and-drop functionality round out the essentials.
Interface : Opera's interface keeps the same look that debuted in Opera 10.50, with a condensed menu button in the upper left corner, tabs on top, and a translucent status bar on the bottom that hosts buttons to reveal Opera's Panels, and to activate Link, Unite, and Turbo. The bottom right corner of the status bar sports a dedicated zoom button.
Buttons on the navigation bar have been condensed, and are now the same height as the location bar. This gives the interface a polished look, and minimizes the amount of space that the bar takes up. The search box, located in its default space to the right of the location bar, can be removed. That and further interface customizations can be made by right-clicking on the navigation bar and selecting customize.
Extension buttons appear to the right of the search box, as they do in Google Chrome, while a recycle bin for quickly re-opening recently closed tabs lives on the right side of the tab bar.
The influence of the radical interface changes that Google Chrome introduced in 2008 can be seen here, from the tabs on top to the extension icons, yet Opera's personality does still come through enough to have a different vibe and feel from Chrome.
Another change comes to the security badge system, which marks sites as "verified safe". Click on the gray "Web" globe icon to the left of the URL bar to check a site's status. Getting information returned was quick on most sites, although it was a bit slow for others. The badges are colored yellow for "secure", green for "trusted", and blue for when you're running Opera's Turbo mode, another excellent feature that's designed for assisting people surfing on slower connections. The Turbo badge will also display estimated data savings. You can turn on Turbo using the button in the status bar at the bottom left of the browser.
Opera's site badges also include a useful reporting mechanism, so it's easy to report a site as fraudulent or malicious. With plug-ins disabled, click the "play" triangle and the plug-in content--in this case, Flash video--will start playing.
